Salt Lake City - UACPA VIII

 In cooperation with Utah Association of Certified Public Accountants (UACPA), we offer a part-time MBA program, conveniently located in their offices at 220 East Morris Avenue. Our faculty travels to the location to provide the same learning experience we offer on campus. This allows Utah State University to meet the needs of many individuals who could not otherwise complete an MBA. The classes are taught for five weeks over an eight-week timeframe and are identical in content to those offered on campus. The additional time is to be used to prepare, stay current, and complete assignments for the class. We try to schedule the programs with a two-week break between courses and try to avoid holidays. The program is offered on Friday 6:00 to 10:00 pm and Saturday 8:00 am to 12:00 pm. No specialization is offered at this location.  However, if the individual is willing to travel to Orem, he or she may take three alternative accounting courses, thus qualifying for the accounting specialization.  For further information, please contact us.

Deadlines:

The UACPA program is a cohort program.  Offering an alliance program is contingent on admission of a minimum pool of qualified applicants. The start of a new program may be delayed until this number is reached.  Applicants should be aware that all deadlines are soft deadlines.  The MBA program will continue to accept applications for the program until all of the program seats have been filled.
